Upper Resp. Problems Keep Coming Back Posted: 03-05-07 18:23pm
Has anybody heard of this problem?
Starting around November, several people I
work with have had cold-like symptoms.
Sinus infection, sore throat, coughing,
laryngitis. At least 4 of us have been
given Z pack antibiodics by our
physicians. The symptoms go away, then
after a few weeks, it comes back again.
I had this happen 3 times since Christmas.
I've been through the antibiodics and
steroids twice. The symptoms went away all
except a minor cough at night. I went to
the doctor, told him I, now, felt fine. He
gives me a clean bill of health. Then 2
days later, all the symptoms re-occur.
Sinus infection, sore throat, cough. 2
other people at work have told me thay
have had the same thing happen to them. We
all agree that each time it occurs, the
sympthoms are less severe than the
previous time.
What is this? Is this some kind of
infection that is occuring around the
country? (We all work in a hospital
maternity floor).

there's a few viruses going around this
yr, just sounds like you guys keep
cathcing them. I've been sick all winter
it feels like, but I have a toddler in
daycare so he bring everything home. I
guess it's the same working in a hosp,
you're around all kinds of stuff.
